When blacksmith’s daughter Kitty Doyle catches the eye of her grocer employer it seems her troubles are over – but there are still dramas to come…
In Far From Home, Lyn Andrews travels between both Ireland and Liverpool in this engrossing saga of new beginnings, new tragedies and new loves. Perfect for fans of Anne Baker, Annie Murray and Dilly Court.
As daughter of the blacksmith in her tiny Irish village, fifteen-year-old Kitty Doyle knows little of the ways of the world, but she has to grow up fast when her widowed father re-marries and she has no choice but to leave the family home.
Luckily there’s work to be found over the water in 1920s Liverpool and soon Kitty has a job in a grocer’s, where she also catches the eye of the owner.
With Kitty’s input the business is soon thriving – but tragedy lies ahead, and she must endure many trials and tribulations before she can find true happiness…
